Prasenjeet Yadav captured this image of a tiger chewing on a cow carcass in Chandrapur, India, where there is a growing tiger population. This image appeared in the September 2025 story “The Curious Case of the Tigers Who Changed Their Stripes,” written by Yadav.

Inspired by Rembrandt, the painter, whose mastery of light and shadow gave us portraits that remain dramatic, moody, and eternal… I sought to echo his unique style, photographing sunflowers under the gentle glow of soft candlelight.

I just completed the course with DPC, and it truly exceeded my expectations. From the very first module, it guided me through a thoughtful self-assessment, then built up to practical strategies covering business planning, structures, legalities, pricing,…Read More

Arrow-marked Babblers live in social groups of three to fifteen, which is why your image tells such an accurate and compelling story, adding significant value to your composition. The focus is sharp where it matters most, with beautiful light in the eyes and spot-on exposure. The crop is highly effective, with the branch entering from the left…Read More

As quiet as a mouse…
My dog chased this little guy into a tree. He sat almost motionless for quite some time.

Well spotted, Renate. The image is well exposed with good light in the eye, and the background is nicely blurred to avoid distraction. For improvement, on a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV (a full-frame camera), using a 400mm lens with a 1.4x extender results in a focal length of 560mm. At 560mm and f/8, the depth of field is very shallow, especially at…Read More

This is a Brown-hooded Kingfisher, and you captured it beautifully. The background is nicely blurred, free from distractions. The image is sharp and well-exposed, with excellent light in the eye. The Kingfisher’s colours are rendered true to life, and the feather detail is impressive. For improvement, consider cropping slightly more at the bottom,…Read More

One of those precious moments in nature, and you captured it perfectly. You ticked all the ‘PPP’ boxes in wildlife photography: Patience, Persistence, and Perfection.
Although the background is busy, the unique moment you captured adds far more impact and value, drawing the viewer’s eye to the subject and allowing the background to fade away. Well done.
